We'll Always Have Paris




This time last year Rachael, Amy, mom and I were off to Paris. I can't stop thinking about it. I was just talking to mom and realizing that I could do the exact same trip again and be perfectly happy. Everything was perfect. I remember buying the airline ticket. I felt daring and empowered. I still feel the excitement of boarding the plane together in Texas. The delicate desserts, boutiques, museums, deformed pigeons, talking together at night...

yeah, Rachael really didn't like the pigeons, or cold Croque Mosieour. Sorry that was so funny to me Rachael. I still think about that make up panini we found for you. Man, that was good. We should have gone there to begin with and then stopped at the other place just for the raspberry tart! yum!

What an adventure! I love the pictures they are all beautiful. I love the puddles of water leading up to the eiffel tower, simply gorgeous!

Can I come next time? Sounds like such a fun trip! It looked a little cleaner than Africa...

Rachael said...

oh yeah, I'd almost forgotten about that nasty cold ham and cheese and the disgusting pigeons that pushed me over the edge to a complete loss of appetite! It's just a good thing that lunch had a happy ending! :)

It's been so great to remember last year. It was so worth every penny and bit of anxiety leading up to the actual trip.

Hailey,
I totally miss you! I will be in Utah the 14th of July until August 2nd. I will be there for my birthday and my sister's wedding. We most definitely need to catch up. How did the school year go for you? Call me whenever you feel bored or in need to chat :).

I was just checking in and I saw the three graces picture and I could have cried! That's my absolutely favorite one and then the Eiffel Tower and then the perfect Hailey in the Metro picture! I WANT TO GO BACK! Let's do it again next week!
